Publisher Ysbryd Games and developer Sukeban Games have announced N1RV Ann-A, a followup to the 2016-released VA11 Hall-A, for PlayStation 4, Switch, and PC. It will launch in English and Chinese in 2020.

Here is an overview of the game, via Ysbryd Games:

Escape from VA11 Hall-A’s Glitch City to Saint Alicia, an idyllic paradise with an upscale bar called N1RV Ann-A. But opulence and extravagance are merely smokescreens: the artificial island hides a seedy underbelly. Its dystopian economy touches all aspects of life as bar patrons contend with mafia extortion, trafficking and other sordid crimes. For bartender Sam, trouble hits close to home. Her relationship with her partner Leon, who moonlights as a Yakuza, is on the rocks, and she works hard to care for their 8-year-old son, Tony.

In N1RV Ann-A’s cyberpunk world, people stop at nothing to live luxuriously, even when it means augmenting their bodies to conform to extreme fads. Become acquainted with customers who frequent the bar, including erotic comic creator Parka and Sam’s gun-toting boss Iris, and serve up delicious real-life recipes with ingredients like vodka and tropical juices. Drink orders are as volatile as emotions in N1RV Ann-A – experiment with different drinks and see what happens!

Explore various story outcomes based on which drinks are served and whose lives are changed. Players can replay missions to improve their scores, explore branching dialogue options and unlock secret missions. Earn better tips by relating to customers through their drinks, and spend hard-earned cash on bills, decorations and Sam’s son, Tony. Will Sam be able to move on and put misdeeds behind her as she embarks on this new cyberpunk bartending adventure?

N1RV Ann-A will be available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Steam for PC in English and Chinese in 2020.

I hope for deeper gameplay and more of the same in characters/music department.

First one was a really good game for its price.

Cool to hear that this game is getting a sequel. Haven't played the first one yet but I'm super interested in doing so at some point. I read a lot on the development of VA11 Hall-A and know the background of the developers, which is why I'm so interested in it. Plus, I see it got a fairly positive response after release everywhere due to how unique was.

 

That 2020 window release looks pretty far away though ;-;

No Vita release? Ehhh, it would feel weird playing this game on a console. Still, if I like VA-11 Hall-A enough, I'll probably get it at some point.

No Vita-tan, no care.

If I can't buy it Vita from LRG and wait half a year to get it delivered, no need to care

Did this ever come out?

Nope. And it's been delayed indefinitely on all platforms. Even the Steam page has the "Coming soon" removed. There's been not much updates since at least 2020.
